It may be old news to those who are keeping track (heh), but this here entry is my 300th! I’ve used past centennial entries to indulge in the more gimmicky posts, so let this be no exception.
Back in my early days of blogging, I thought that bloggers with FAQ pages were automatically Very Interesting People. What must it be like, I wondered, to be so widely-read that people would ask the same things over and over to the point that one would be compelled to compile the questions into a quick reference? Over time, I let go of this criterion of greatness once I realized that a blogger could simply — gasp — make up the questions. Ah, naïveté.
In homage to this assumption of yore, I solicit your questions, burning or otherwise, for answering in future posts. What’s that interview question you like to pose? Do you need a book recommendation? Would you like clarification on anything? I am an open book.*
There’s no harm if any of the Qs turn out to be F A, right?

* Well, to a point. I’ll answer what I can to the extent that I deem appropriate, and I reserve the right to respond via e-mail. Keep it clean, kids!

In a serendipitous connection to these questions and answers, I’ve signed up for Citizen of the Month’s Great Interview Experiment, and I am excessively excited about it.

Thank goodness I came up with a standard question for these posts when they first started popping up. Otherwise I’d be totally out of creativity by now. Anyway, what’s your favorite beauty product–the one you can’t live without and/or use every day? Or if there’s more than one, I want to hear about all of them.
Neil is great, isn’t he?
My question: on a scale of 1-10, how good are you at geography?
What is your definition of a perfect day, start to finish.
What would you do with an extra $100 bucks? A thousand? A million?
xox
If you had to be one inanimate object, what would you be and why?
How did JG propose?
I’m tempted to ask you something that fits into the category of “anything” but now that the pressure is on, I can’t think of what!
Do you have your future babies’ names picked out?
What is your favorite word? Least favorite?
If you could trade places with anyone for one day who would it be and why?
If you had to move in to an empty log cabin in the middle of the woods and you could only take ONE piece of furniture with you, what would you take?
As you may have noticed, not many Americans are getting married any more. It seems to me that most couples opt to forgo the formality and just live together in a steady, committed relationship. What made you decide to get married, as opposed to just living with JG? I guess my question stems from the fact that I am also a twenty-something married person, and I know why I did it. But I’m always interested to learn why other people take the plunge.
I will first ask my favorite… What was your favorite outfit in 8th grade?
And a bonus one, which may be more of the “FA” variety… How did you choose your college? What did you like and dislike about the school you chose? (You may have already answered this, but I think it’s an interesting topic.)
1. You win 100 ponds of anything (except money). What do you get?
2. What character from a TV sitcom do you most relate to?
Pounds! I meant pounds! But if you want a pond of something…. :o)
I’m laughing so hard at Janet’s 100 ponds! I was like, “Wow, what a creative question! What size are these ponds, I wonder?”
Are you giving up anything for Lent? If so, what? If not, if you were to give something up, what would it be? (This is strangely fascinating to me because I have never given up anything for Lent in my life.)
So, when are you going to start having babies? (JUST KIDDING!)
If you could go back in time and change one thing you did, what would it be?
If you could have one superpower (anything), what would it be?
What is your all-time favorite TV show?
If you won $10,000, what would you do with it?
